I would even pay a couple hundred for delivery.😃

Sprint doesn’t have a limit on their evdo service, verizon is capping it.

If you can get the service, it would be a nice option. Its more money than powerlink, but when its your only option it might work.

You need RG11 so good luck with that. I could help you out with some RG6 if you needed it for everything in your house, but I would not use it for anything from the pole.

I still don’t understand how a dish can transmit.

Ive used it at his place, it honestly wasn’t bad. Only down side I saw was during big storms it was more sensitive than satellite TV in terms on loosing signal. Then again it could have just been were the dish was positioned/pointed.
